India Circus and Give - Aways

India Circus, a premium brand that offers lifestyle products with a combination of inspiring designs and colours represents renowned designer Krsna Mehta’s stylish journey. Each product of India Circus offers his meticulous artwork. The brand is inspired by a delightful eclectic mix of colour, themes and lush flora and fauna of rich Indian heritage with a twist of quirkiness giving the product a contemporary look. Krsna Mehta’s eye for details makes the India Circus products brim with sophistication. I personally love the prints used which are influenced by Indian palette of motifs like lotus, paisleys, peacocks, palaces and ikats. Their product range consists of colourful bright cushions, exquisite crockery, bags and i-phone covers with quirky designs and many more lifestyle products. And one my favorites are the beautifully designed premium crockery or dinner set that includes dinner plates, bowls, tea cups and coffee mugs.




India Circus is partnered with groups like WestWing, Fab.com, Haute Look and many other big names with buyers all over the world. And it continues to aim department stores that specialises with home décor, accessories and interiors.

 

Let’s get to know a bit more about India Circus from designer Krsna Mehta himself

Krsna Mehta
Why the name India circus?
When I was deciding the creative path that we were going to take with India Circus, it occurred to me that the absolute diversity from which I draw inspiration is so vast that once they are all under one roof, it would be nothing short of a Circus... an Indian Circus. Thus the name was born.

And how did it begin?
Being a person who is highly interested in good Home Décor, I often found that there weren’t any designs. The idea and concept was born out of the lack of great Indian designs at great prices! I wanted to make and promote Contemporary Indian design and culture. A larger section of middle income Indians couldn’t afford to have well designed products. Thus an idea was born and from a simple concept it grew and has become what it is.  

 
Where do you draw your inspiration for your designs?
I am inspired by all things Indian. I get inspired by things like the road side chai-wala and also India’s rich historical heritage. Thus, I incorporate all of my India based inspiration in my work and translate that inspiration into a design philosophy that is contemporary India.

 
How would you describe your design style and do you have a signature touch with your designs?
My style could be characterized as Indian Contemporary. The defining element would be my use of colour in the designs. The use of colours is very integral to my designs.  

 
What is your big dream for India Circus?
To become an affordable fashion brand with a global presence.

 
What décor tips would you like to give my readers?
When doing up your home try to stay away from the predictable. Experiment with different textures, paint and fabrics such as smooth, rough, matte and so on. Sometimes even the smallest of details can help transform a room. Instead of investing in a completely new look, just get some colourful cushion covers, wall art and other accessories which will definitely liven up the space.

I have always adored indiacircus' collection.. Had been eyeing quite a few things but if i had to pick an absolute favourite, it would be the lotus handbags! They r so stylishly Indian!! In fact my next splurge would be on the pink lotus hand bag😊.. I also love the vintage tissue box holder, the cushion covers, the coasters... Noo, i love it all..

Hello Rachel!! I've done all three and I sure hope to win *smiles*

I've always loved the stuff at India Circus... Im not a huge fan of digital printed cushion covers... but their colours pop out and the images simply call out to you!! And I guess thats what gives them the wow factor!

Hi Rachel, this is my first visit here. I came via Patty's blog. Indiacircus has a lovely collection of home decor and I love the riot of colors that inevitably comes along with each product. I, personally am a big fan of cushion covers and I feel they are the best thing to add if you want to upgrade your decor. I love their digital print cushions the most :)

Hi Rachel! It's my first time too on your blog. Hopped on via Patricia's blog. Loved everything thing on India by Circus....must say...it's very difficult to choose just one favourite thing. I just adore the cushions and table runners so much. :) All the best with the give-away!!!

Hi Rachel, Very informative blog. It is difficult to choose one product from India Circus...all r fantabulous. I like colorful cushion covers a lot....I am a big fan of Krsna Mehta, he always add that wow factor in his each design. I love the texture, fabric and selection of colors.
Hope to win this lovely set of cushion covers and add some magic in my living room. :)

Hey Rachel, This is the first time, I am interacting your blog! :) I hope I get lucky! :)I love a whole load of stuff from India Circus. But if I had to choose, I think it would most definitely be their premium crockery and probably their i-phone covers!

Choosing from the best is always a difficult choice. When we browse through Indiacircus, that's the struggle I have to go through. Each product is so colorful and unique. The wallart showcasing Krishna and Radha and the Maharani's are too good. The crockery is eye candy. I think even if i buy it.. i will just keep it for myself as a piece of art rather than using it :-)

The Great Pictures and the Great writings of the India Circus!

Its so difficult to pick just one product as the whole range is so amazing. Loved the Namaste India phone cover as the print and colors are so vibrant and reminds me of all that India is about! Beautiful!

I have to say, the stuff on India Circus looks super intriguing and lovely! My favourite would be the Namaste India iphone 5S cover. I'm always looking for unique covers for my phone and finding one that emobdies my indianness is like a JACKPOT!
